Okay, I am in need of some serious truck/suv advice. I am looking into purchasing a V6 engine vehicle with the option of adding on a 4x4. I wanted to know some comparison info.What are the benefits of each? 4x4, you have 4 wheel drive if you need itDrawbacks of each? usually costs more for tranmission work but about the same otherwiseDo you get any every-day driving perk with a 4x4, or just off-roading? not unless you get a jeep, then you have full timeallwheel drive or 4wdCan you go off road in a 4x2 on dry easy conditions? sure ever see the baja 500Which tows better? (Such as 1 horse in a 2 horse trailer)Better gas mileage?the 4 wd will tow better due to usually haveing deeper gearing, and may actually get better mileage during towing than the 2wd because of the lower gearing, unless the 2wd has a "towing package"Lower insurance?Safety? you need something with at least 12 inch brakes front and rear and a V-8 or at least a inline 6 like jeeps haveHandling/Ride/Noise?Suspension?Repair/Cost of Maintenance? As you can see.... I don't know much on this issue. TEACH ME!!! :-)Thank you in advance for any help or advice offered on the issue!
